- Double-weighted statement
- This monograph constructs and deconstructs a complex set of narratives concerning modernist operatic composition, performance, and reception in Wagner’s wake. The request to double-weight rests on the variety of sources and practices consulted, analysed, and discussed, including: six composers’ operatic œuvres and related contextual and secondary sources, spanning a period of more than a century; archival study; theoretical writing spanning history, musicology, philosophy, political theory, and literary and theatre studies; attendance of particular opera stagings across Europe over a ten-year period. Synthesis and theorisation of this material from numerous disciplinary and interdisciplinary standpoints required further intensive and wide-ranging reflection.
